There are currently two unofficial builds of CHICKEN for [[http://opensuse.org/|OpenSuSE]], which are built and kept updated using OpenSuSE's build service facility [[https://build.opensuse.org/|OBS]]. They can be obtained by adding the corresponding repository [[https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:zilti:chicken/chicken|home:zilti:chicken]] to zypper's repository list and installing from there.

Another solution is to set the {{DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}} environment variable to the location of {{libchicken.dylib}}. However, this will mess up some other programs, as they will look for their libraries in {{/opt/local/lib}} as well. One solution is to set up aliases for {{csi}} and {{csc}} in your bash profile. Add the following two lines to {{~/.profile}}:

For many systems, you can use [[http://www.pkgsrc.org|pkgsrc]]. This is a cross-platform packaging system, which works on most modern Unix-like operating systems and even on Windows (using Interix/Services for Unix or Cygwin). See [[http://www.netbsd.org/docs/software/packages.html#platforms|this table]] for the full list of supported platforms.

'''NOTE:''' Some users may encounter issues installing eggs on Windows (particularly [[http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/bind|bind]]) unless an appropriate C compiler is installed. It is recommended to use [[http://mingw-w64.org|mingw-w64]] in place of [[http://mingw.org|mingw32]] as the mingw32 project is no longer as actively maintained.
